Lady Gaga, I want your bad romance

I wasn't sure what to expect - Gaga is known for her crazy - but she blew me away.

The show told the story of the Lady and her friends trying to get to the Monster Ball. However, they met a few obstacles including:
a car that turned out to have a piano for an engine,

a broken down subway carriage,

AND

a huge (genuine) monster.

She was incredible. Lady Gaga danced her way through the entire show, singing live all the way. She interacted with the audience and gave her all.

And then there were the costume changes:
a purple glittery leotard,

a red, super-villain style cape,

a white latex dress (worn earlier with a giant white wimple),

a long black PVC cloak.....

.......a bra, pants and fishnets,

what appeared to be a giant fringed drum

but the most amazing outfit had to be the Hussein Chalayan inspired living dress.

It was completely incredible and although I'd seen some pictures of it online, I wasn't prepared for the wings popping out the back. What the pictures don't show is how the dress moves independently, with no apparent mechanism moving it.

I want one.
